francesco Lippi
Co-Founder – Director
I am the CEO and CO founder of IST Corp after training, developing and operate in Worldwide we are create the establishment.
I was born in Italy in the 1980s.
After completing my studies in Florence, I decided to move to the United Kingdom, where I developed a passion for self-defense and weapon systems.
After undergoing various training courses in these fields and founding IST CORP together with my friend and colleague Nicola, I traveled to different parts of the world to train people in carrying out their duties.
I have also attended numerous advanced training and refresher courses, which have given me in-depth knowledge of the methods to ensure the safety of the people I assist.
Expanding internationally, in 2020 I co-founded Ist Corp L.T.D., an International Security Training Corporation headquartered in London, U.K. This venture marked a significant step in my professional journey, reflecting both a global vision and a strong commitment to raising standards in the security sector.
Through Ist Corp, our mission is to deliver comprehensive, high-quality training programs tailored to the evolving needs of security professionals across different regions and operational contexts. From corporate environments to high-risk areas, our goal is to equip individuals and organizations with the skills, knowledge, and mindset necessary to operate effectively and responsibly in a complex world.
By building a network of experienced trainers and leveraging best practices from multiple countries, we strive to foster a culture of excellence, integrity, and continuous improvement within the global security industry.
Nicola Rutigliano
Co-Founder – Director
If you are looking for expertise in security, investigations, and event safety, let me introduce myself. Since 2001, I have been the Founder and Director of D.S.B. Assistance, a security company based in Florence, Italy. Over the years, we have specialized in providing top-level security services for hospitality, clubs, concerts, red carpet events, stewarding, health and safety, fire prevention, training, and logistical consultancy.
In 2011, I obtained a Police Public Relations License under Article 115 of the T.U.L.P.S., which has allowed me to strengthen my connections and expertise in the field. A year later, in 2012, I expanded my qualifications by acquiring a Private Police Investigation License under Article 134 of the T.U.L.P.S., enabling me to operate in private security and investigations.
My dedication to the field led me to become the National President of Italdetectives® Association in 2016, a prestigious organization for private investigators. This role has allowed me to contribute to the professionalization and recognition of the private security sector.
Expanding internationally, in 2020, I co-founded Ist Corp L.T.D., an International Security Training Corporation based in London, U.K. Through this initiative, I aim to provide high-quality training for security professionals worldwide.
